Project of interest

White Lea Farm

In 2006 I started visiting White Lea Farm near Easington on the Durham Heritage Coast. The area was once a major source of coal, but when the pits closed, both people and land were left in difficulty. The farm and surrounding coast are now owned and managed by the National Trust.

Beginning landscape photography

One of the great things about showing my work at exhbition and on the web is that I talk to a lot of other photographers, many of whom are beginners and want to improve their art. I’m often asked “how can I take better photographs?” or “is there a good course/tutor?” or that holy grail question “I want to be a professional photographer, how do I do it?”.  I will try to answer the first two questions in this article, and the last about professional photography in a seperate article.
